Wow. All I can say is wow. This film send me on a whirlwind of emotional, moral, and even comedic bouts. What started out as a relatively simple movie quickly dropped when this seemingly perfect family was thrown into a dramatic conflict with another family. When the problem of each of their children being switched at birth arises, both families were shocked. They wanted to know what happened, why it happened, and how they would be compensated. Then once tensions settle, the families are faced with the decision of whether they want to have their original child back. This sends the plot spiraling into a series of meet-ups with the children, rich versus poor mentalities, a father distraught at his own parenting skills, and finally a decision to start over with a more "perfect" son. The father soon realizes what wrong he has done after learning the meaning of being a 'true' parent to a child as he shortly raised. The father takes his 'genetic' son back to retrieve his 'real' son. Although, after the bout of him retracting his love for his son, he has to make amends and promise to be a true father to him.
Really a marvelous film and what a great statement about parenting and love. Truly inspirational. The character kept you on the edge of your seat constantly and the ending could not be anticipated. I would definitely watch and recommend this film to others. The use of character development and the cinematography was something that stood out to me greatly. This is a film that deserves to be watched.
